Another fantastic video by Erick! 🙌 can’t be grateful enough
Thank you Eric! Awesome series, please continue.
I think overhead may build more muscle since it’s in stretched position, but…because it’s in such a compromised position it can’t generate much strength which generally equates to electrical signals, so yeah overhead can’t generate much force which shows as reduced signaling, meanwhile push down can generate a lot of strength and more signaling, this is why these things don’t equate to muscle GROWTH, but muscle STRENGTH, and strength is just a by product signal strength
Yah. An EMG might show higher activation if I grab an elastic band & do one arm crossovers for pecs than if I did a dumbbell fly but I'm pretty sure the latter is gonna build more tissue
I was thinking the same all the way till he mentioned it
Thank u for being smart
Love that you’re not fully endorsing your exercise even though you’re fully able to take advantage of the data to claim your variation as best. This is very great data but as you said but more variables need to be factored for it to be conclusive. Great educational video, no self-serving bias, and overall very considerate of not misrepresenting the data and accounting for the data’s limits. Also like that you end with some points for discussion. The format is very organized and feels similar to science journals
Love this kind of video of yours❤️🔥
analyze various johnson exercises next
Excellent video, I imagine this is a lot of work, I truly appreciate
Very interesting video! Would love to see you have a quick zoom call with Dr. Mike discussing this technology.
The incline bench cable tricep push down fried my tris. 🔥
Keep doing the surfer voice, it works for you
Tried the Inclined ISO bench Tricep push down. Yeap felt so much Triceps, keeping my front delts and shoulder out and also safer for my elbkw. Will try this for the long run. Thanks Erick!
I recently added laying over head tris to my routine and underbars... big stimulus for me.
I like dragging the bench around to get rid of any body English or reduce unwanted assistance, I find it to be great for isolation.
I'm definitely going to try the angled bench. Thank you for all the great info.
Straight bar push downs are my favorite, and over head extensions just cuz it feels so weak it must be needed to workout
Perfect 👏👌🥇
V bar pushdowns have always been my favorite tricep exercise but will definitely try the bench version now after this video! Thanks for the video.
Interesting results between rope too, but seems better to atleast mix up the rope and v bar, or just do both and keep that outward contraction on the rope at the bottom.
I wonder how the EZ-Bar close and wide grip cable pushdowns compare too, as I like to mix these in and rotate bi-weekly.
Love your videos!
If I may, it might be that you're correct about overhead extensions not having enough stability. Maybe that's why First Mr. Olympia Larry Scott's ( RIP ) Kneeling facedown tricep v-bar cable overhead extensions on his special twin pedestal bench was super effective! Eric please consider trying that exercise on your machine.
Btw, you don’t need the twin bench, just put your elbows on a regular bench whilst ducking your head down. Or use 2 benches.
My gym has a tricep pushdown cable, but it has a backpad that you can lean back against, and it basically does the same as the incline bench. I'd be really interested to see if there are different responses in data between the incline bench setup, and the vertical standing backpad one at my gym
This dude looked so huge on jubilee had to come here and compare... Dude definitely holds up subbed
I love these videos. Surprising results sometimes. I would have loved to see how a guillotine press with a close-grip/triceps variant would do? Another interesting thing to test might be how super sets or say like a myorep may effect the stimulus of the muscles and how rest periods could change it.
Corect video Fezbook
U make the best videos in all of gym community love u bro
Curious to see how some of the other “kings” of tricep building stack up, like the jm press, skull crushers, close grip bb press and/or incline close grip bb press stack up
Eric what are your thoughts on ideal bench positioning and attachments for the incline cable tricep pushdown? What angle and attachments do you recommend? I did this for the first time today and pump is incredible.
Those facing-away cable tricep-pushdowns are my fav too. I do them with the Cybex Cable Column because I can lean my back against the rails while pressing down. Puts the triceps "on an island" as you say, I couldn't agree more!!
What do you think of Lying Cable Curls Eric sir? I think I can load that exercise the most and also isolate the best with it.
RIP skullcrushers 💀 🔨
Yeh! Triceps HTLT!
When you gonna battle Bradley on who weighs more?
Question: does the fatigue of doing a bunch of sets for this mean that the later sets give unrepresentative low signals?
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👍🏻👍🏻
Totally unrelated but.... where did you got those shorts? 😅
🔥
Hey Tiny !
keep these EMG videos coming.
Mike actually said he's too lazy to drag around benches and actually gave props for the willpower to... drag 😉
He bless Erick lol
I'm waiting for Jeff nipard aka the goat's response
What level of EKG activity will cause me to stop missing her?
Over 9000
Signal strength does not equate to hypertrophy, it equates to strength , but hypertrophy is a derivative of strength
Actually strength is a consequence of hypertrophy
@@nanox25x lol no
Yes, as the muscle grows bigger it generates more force. Revisit the basics. You can be very strong without having big muscles if you train specifically for strength (1-5 reps, high load, training to max 1 RM). On the other hand training for hypertrophy (6-30 reps, slow eccentric, focusing on the stretch part of the movement) will make you stronger and allow to progressively overload. If you are getting stronger overtime, then you are making gains, but you can be strong without being big: see Anatoly for example
@@nanox25x strength is in the CNS, hypertrophy is a derivative of strength, now go away kiddo
@@_baller strength is the result of both hypertrophic and neuroadaptative pathways
If you only have time for 2 tricep exercises start with a pushdown of some sort and end with an overhead extension. EMG in not the end all be all of building muscle, since it doesn't track stretch.
I feel like the middle head comes into play more in the overhead position
What about close grip benches? They're so commonplace.
To bad you did not do dr mikes smith machine skull crushers. That would have been interesting to see the results.
I'm surprised there wasn't any skull crushers tested.
You know you're a phony when you are sponsored by Greg doucette

Great video, Eric.
When you increase the load on a muscle, it has to work harder to overcome that load.
Increased efforts lead to higher activation of motor units within the muscle, causing more muscle fibers to contract.
As a result, the surface (EMG) signal, which measures the neural drive to the muscle, shows greater amplitude because more muscle fibers are being recruited and firing simultaneously to enable the muscle to work harder.

Dr Mike is KING
Instead of doing inclines, can I just lean on the machine.. like lean on the metal of the cable machine
Yeah i do them like this also, works great!
@@redstang70 thanks! I've tried it out too.. works real nice and less setup needed
CZcams fitness family 😂 yeah man fit
Don't listen to this over head extensions r goated. Proven by REAL SCIENCE
Very suspicious results, I have never once felt soreness in my long head doing push downs, overhead has my triceps sore for 2-3 days not sure how push downs are working the long head more efficiently
Reverse grip eric could have been top
What about lying barbell french press/skull crusher?
EMG data =/= Muscle Hypertrophy
Im breathing air right now.
His arms have a bigger circumference than his skull ... Geez
Skull crushers ?!?!?!
this guy is now making random alts that are not necessary. do regular push downs bro. someones gonna need that bench
GO steroid monster
So steroids? That's all ya had to say
In my opinion, this is worthless because, all of the masters of physical culture did not need any of this. I am talking about Sandow, Hackenschmit, Jowett, Hoffman. Klein and Rolland. And Physical culture is the study and practice of "health and strength", which is also the study of nutrition and "recovery" which is just as important as the nutrition and lifting heavy weights against gravity!
Steve Reeves, Dave Draper, Bill Pearl, Vince Gironda, Larry Scott, Doug Brignole, apparently did not need any of this bull spit as well. I consider this kind of a video is just ego video for views rather than practical health and fitness advice.
Yet again….another UNoriginal idea stealing Ryan Humingstons videos
What is the relationship between this "activation data" and hypertrophy?
Is there evidence that prioritizing electrical activity/action potential drives hypertrophy?
Key quote, "understand what the data is telling you."
I think this data requires more analysis. It should be discussed with regards to training goals.
There is correlation but no causation
